 Topic: Healthy Snack Ideas
Posted: 08 January 2010 at 6:06pm |

After talking to Mum today about the amount of salt that is "hidden" in so many foods I am starting to think that I need some new snack ideas for Jack.
He has cereal for breakfast, eats dinner with us and has his veges and will have sandwiches and fruit for lunch.
But I seem to be giving him bars (Mother Earth Fruit sticks), tiny teddies, shapes crakers, creamed rice as snacks, although I don't give him alot of them at a time I suppose I should try and come up with a few healthier snack options, any ideas?

Rice cakes are good, Only Organics do small toddler-sized ones, with natural flavours like apple. Campbell loves them!

Popcorn is great, we got a popcorn maker with our flybuys points and I use it all the time.
cornthins
cruskits
yoghurt
there is a recipe for homemade muesli bars in the babe thread, is a lot of sugar though, as are most muesli bars.
how about making mini savoury muffins? I do one with cheese and pesto that my boys like and you can do them in batches and freeze.

Thanks for the ideas. I was hoping to get some savoury muffins made tomorrow. Will add some of these things to the next shopping list

we have discovered that Ella loves the litte mini gerkins (I have got a bit of gerkin craving going during this pregnancy so Ella keeps trying to eat all my gerkins).
